Re: st: Variable values as labels in matrix output???

[Sergiy Radyakin <serjradyakin@gmail.com>]

Rebecca, if I understood the problem correctly, you can use:
 levelsof var, local(levs)
to obtain the levels of a var, and save them to local levs.
Then use ":word # in ..." to obtain each level (rowname).

Do you want to write just a few elements from the matcell-matrix? I
see a loop by different variables, but not by rows of matrix. This is
somewhat confusing. I mean fixing the indices in this line:
... _tab (cell[1,1]) _tab (cell[1,2])


Best, Sergiy
